Outside of DD, it's tough to find donuts in the 'Burgh. However, I figured a morning trip over to this little shop in the Strip District would cure what ailed my morning sweet tooth. Of course, you must first play Parking Roulette before you can walk anywhere along Smallman Street, but I lucked out with an inexpensive metered spot.
Did I mention the shop is almost as little as the donuts themselves? Oh yeah. You have enough room to walk in, order and walk out, so there's definitely no eating in here. But no biggie.
I was impressed with their variety of options and decided to try their popular Maple Bacon and vanilla frosted with sprinkles. After paying the friendly cashier, I took them on my way to a nearby cafe to enjoy with my morning mocha.
After eating one of each, I can honestly say I was a little let down. They were okay for cake donuts, but I've had better (and bigger) ones for around the same price. I think I was more suprised than anything since they're made fresh right there behind the counter.
PL&LD might be worth a one-time stop to try in you're in the area, but I wouldn't necessarily go out of my way to come back again.
